Vittozzi messes it up: Now Wierer has all the trump cards in his hand

The woman from Niederrasn took 11th place in the Oslo sprint - not actually a dream result for Wierer, but in the current situation (Wierer was, as we know, tied for first place with Vittozzi before the competition) a result that is worth its weight in gold with 1 races to go . Because Lisa Vittozzi showed her weakest competition of the entire winter, missing 2 out of 5 targets and only finishing in 10th place, her chances of winning the big ball have shrunk to a minimum.

Wierer can make his dream come true “Doro” currently has 882 points and is 30 points ahead of the biathlete from Sappada/Plodn. If you subtract the results (the two worst results of the season for each athlete are taken away at the end), Wierer is “only” ahead by 2 points. But: Vittozzi missed the qualification for the pursuit on Saturday (only the top 60 in the sprint are eligible to start) and will therefore only take part in the mass start on Sunday. Wierer, on the other hand, can still score points in two competitions. One thing is clear: the speedster now has all the trump cards in her hand to get the big crystal ball.

In any case, Anastasiya Kuzmina triumphed in the sprint on Thursday, securing the small crystal ball in that discipline. Second place went to the German Franziska Preuß, while the Slovakian Paulina Fialkova came third. Women's sprint in Oslo Pos Name Country Error Time 1. Anastasiya Kuzmina SVK 1 19.56,2 Min 2.
